"Captain, you said that not only did we complete the mission this time, but we also seized so many artillery shells and weapons. If the regiment commander knew about it, he would be very happy." Chen Guangrong, who was already the commander of the firepower battalion, looked at the horses and horses.
The prisoner said in front of Liu Hua with a smile on his back with the cannonballs on his back.
"You said that you are already the battalion commander, and you are still smiling as playfully as before. If you look like that, I will remove you." Liu Hua said fiercely when he saw his happy look.
"No, no! Captain, I've only been in charge for two days..." Looking at Chen Guangrong's appearance, Liu Hua couldn't help but laugh. He ignored him and climbed up a hillside by the roadside.
He raised his binoculars and saw a blazing red riverside. It seemed that Mr. Peng was still there, Liu Hua thought to himself. He looked behind the team and found it was pitch black. Liu Hua smiled and said to Bruce Lee, the platoon leader of the security platoon who was following him.
"It seems that Wang Zanbin is afraid of being beaten by us and doesn't dare to send troops to chase him anymore, haha..."
"Immediately send an order to the troops, collect torches, speed up the march, and be sure to get to the riverside before dawn," Bruce Lee responded.
Soon, an hour passed, and the reconnaissance platoon leader Liu Xiaogang, who had been clearing the way for the troops, ran to Liu Hua's side.
"Report to the leader, I heard gunshots by the river ahead. I didn't dare to alert others. Judging from the intensity of the gunfire, there should be quite a few people fighting."
After listening to Liu Xiaogang's report, Liu Hua did not dare to hesitate and quickly ordered
"Go and investigate the situation immediately, find out the situation and report to me."
Looking at the retreating figure, Liu Hua fell into deep thought. You must know that in history, the pontoon was bombed during the day, and the battle on the riverside was the final battle between the International Division and the enemy who were left on the east bank.
Maybe fate is really playing tricks on him, so he should leave himself here. Thinking of this, Liu Hua felt depressed.
Looking at the wounded walking by in front of him, they were all soldiers of the 34th Division. After seeing them go through a fierce battle, although they suffered heavy casualties, they still walked forward with high morale. Looking at these high-spirited soldiers, Liu Hua
He seemed to be impressed too.
There is nothing to be afraid of. I have thousands of troops now. I didn’t dare to reorganize the troops just now. Now I have lost contact with the central government. Once those troops are reorganized and with so many weapons seized, they will definitely be an elite force.
.There are so many people, and they are afraid that they will not be able to conquer a piece of their own world, and at worst they will return to Jinggangshan to fight guerrillas. Thinking of this, Liu Hua raised his head and walked forward.
"Commander, commander, we figured it out. We caught a tongue. He said they were from the 112th Regiment of the Central Army and were attacking the remaining few hundred people of the International Division. The International Division could no longer hold on. The International Division
There were hundreds of dispersed Red Army troops behind, many of them from the Eighth Army. But, but..." Liu Xiaogang lowered his head in frustration and did not continue.
It seems that his expectation has become a reality, Liu Hua patted Xiaogang's shoulder and said.
"Did the pontoon bridge be blown off?" Liu Hua asked coldly.
Liu Xiaogang nodded. Looking at Xiaogang who looked depressed, Liu Hua knew that he had to cheer up and set an example to the soldiers.
"Xiao Gang, do you believe me?"
Liu Xiaogang nodded, still without any expression.
"Since you believe me, then cheer up for me. Wasn't it just that the pontoon bridge was bombed? In the worst case, we can fight back to the base. There are so many of us and so much ammunition. What's there to be afraid of? Believe me, I will definitely do it.
Leading everyone out." Liu Hua said seriously.
"Captain, I believe you. In the worst case, we will go back to Jinggangshan to fight guerrillas." Xiaogang raised his head, no longer depressed, and said steadily.
Liu Hua was very happy to see Liu Xiaogang quickly recover from his depression.
"Okay, go call some battalion commanders and we'll have a short meeting."
You should all know, now that we are trapped on the east coast, let's talk about what to do?" Liu Hua looked at the silent crowd and said, breaking the silence.
"Captain, you say it! We all listen to you."
"It's all up to you, leader, just say it," Chen Guangrong echoed after hearing what Chen Guangrong said.
"Well, I think we should save all the troops on the east coast. The more people the better, so that we have enough troops to break out of the encirclement, then fight back to the base area, coordinate the central government's breakout, and then find a way to find the radio station and obtain it from the central government.
Contact us and let the central government instruct us on our next move." After saying that, he looked at the silent crowd.
"I agree," Lao Sun said first
"agreed, agreed"……
Soon, several people at the meeting agreed.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, I order Lao Sun to lead the 1, 2, and 3 rescuers to rescue the trapped International Division. Remember, the enemy must be completely wiped out and they must not be allowed to leak information. Chen Guangrong leads the artillery to collect all the dispersed Red Army troops.
, will be reorganized in a while. The reconnaissance platoon will all disperse, mount the horses of the wounded, and immediately report the enemy's situation. All prisoners will be placed in the custody of the 34th Division. The 34th Division will take the opportunity to rest and reorganize. They will be able to go to the battlefield after a while. The guard platoon will follow me.
, execute it immediately.”
"Yes" everyone shouted in unison.
The battle to rescue the International Division started quickly and ended quickly. The battle was thorough. After the three battalions surrounded the 112th Regiment, all firepower opened fire at once. In an instant, half of the 112th Regiment fell.
A battalion immediately rushed forward, and soon the regiment collapsed. The remaining more than 100 people surrendered.
As the battlefield slowly calmed down, after being taken in by the guard platoon, nearly a thousand ragged Red Army soldiers stood in front of Liu Hua. It was obvious that there were three groups of Red Army soldiers standing in front of him: the ones with faces filled with gunpowder smoke must be
There were more than 300 people in the International Division who had just come down from the position, and they looked numb. Some of them didn't even have guns. Needless to say, they must be skirmishers from the Eighth Army. The largest number was nearly 500 people.
.The last group of people was confusing to Liu Hua. They were all veterans of the Red Army in their 30s, and there were nearly a hundred people in total.
Looking at the soldiers in front of him, Liu Hua said loudly, "Now I am reorganizing you as the leader of the Red 10th Regiment. Is there anyone who is dissatisfied?"
Looking at the silent warrior in front of him.
"Now I order all cadres above the company level or who have served as company level or above to come out."
Soon, a few soldiers stood up from the International Division, all of whom were company-level cadres. There were even fewer soldiers from the Eighth Army Corps. It was estimated that all the cadres had died in the battle. What surprised Liu Hua was that almost half of those veterans were
stood up.
Gao Yuan, former commander of the First Red Army Corps, Wang Nanhu, former deputy commander of the Third Red Army Corps, Chen Dazhong, former deputy commander of the Fifth Red Army Corps, Li Qing, former deputy political commissar of the division of the Eighth Red Army Corps...
After listening to the reports of these people, Liu Hua was immediately stunned. Who are these people? Oh my god.
Seeing that the regiment leader was in a daze again, Lao Sun reminded him, "Commander, those people were all demoted because of the suppression of counter-revolutionaries. I don't know what happened, but they didn't cross the river.
"Okay, now I order that Gao Yuan will be the commander of the 4th Battalion of the 10th Red Regiment, and the officers and soldiers under his command will be more than 34 Hong troops. Wang Nanhu will be the commander of the 5th Battalion of the 10th Red Regiment. The officers and soldiers under his command will be the remnants of the International Division of the Shao Communist Party, and they will be supplemented by the remnants of the Eighth Army Corps.
With 200 officers and soldiers, Zhao Dahe's third battalion also supplemented 200 remnants of the Eighth Army, and appointed Chen Dazhong as the commander of the sixth battalion, which was composed of the remaining 100 and remaining members of the Eighth Army and all remaining Red Army cadres plus all prisoners willing to join the Red Army. Guards
The platoon and reconnaissance platoon select officers and soldiers from each battalion to form a guard company and reconnaissance company. You will be given half an hour to organize the troops. The soldiers choose the squad leader, and the squad leader chooses the platoon leader. The company commander is appointed by the battalion commander, and deputy positions must be set up. All personnel are assigned from the captured weapons
The ammunition must be replenished, and the ammunition must be sufficient. We will gather in half an hour, and by then I will see the seven main battalions full of energy."
"Yes, resolutely complete the task." All the appointed cadres shouted in unison.
After finishing speaking, he came to Li Qing and said, "Political Commissar Li, can you go to the regiment headquarters and serve as acting political commissar? Since I was appointed as regimental leader, the Red Tenth Regiment has never had a political commissar, is that okay?" After that,
Just look at Li Qing.
Li Qing was originally unhappy because Liu Hua did not assign him a position. How could he not be excited when he saw that Liu Hua actually found him personally and asked him to be the political commissar of the regiment?
"Captain, since you trust me so much, I will definitely cooperate with your work and be a good acting political commissar." Li Qing replied excitedly.
Looking at the reorganized troops in front of him, Liu Hua felt as if he was dreaming. There were six infantry battalions, one firepower battalion, and two directly affiliated companies (one platoon was missing for reconnaissance). Each infantry battalion had a full strength of 500 people. The entire regiment
There are more than 3,500 people in total, which is more than the two main regiments of the Red Army.
Speaking of firepower equipment, it is even more incredible. Due to the large number of seizures, each infantry squad has a light machine gun. The firepower battalion includes an artillery company with 12 mortars and two machine gun companies with 12 heavy machine guns each.
The ammunition is even more abundant. There are so many shells that it is impossible to play. There are still 100 rounds of bullets left for each person... Looking at the entire Red Army, the firepower of a division cannot compare with Liu Hua's Red Tenth Regiment. In addition to heavy firepower, it has light firepower.
In terms of firepower, it will only be better than one division of the Central Army.
Looking at the soldiers in front of him, Liu Hua was stunned. Li Qing was also stunned. Is this still a regiment?
"Comrades, I am Liu Hua, the leader of the 10th Red Regiment. Many of you must have heard of the 10th Regiment! They wiped out four enemy regiments at Gulingtou, and then worked with the 11th Regiment to annihilate a division of the Central Army.
A regiment. Just yesterday, we annihilated two regiments of the Guangxi Army, and just now we completely annihilated a regiment of the Central Army. It may be hard for you to believe what I say! But I tell you, it is all true.
Yes, look at the rifle bullets in your hands... they were all seized in the past two days. I am not asking for credit when I say this. I just want to say that it turns out that we only have a thousand people and we are short of ammunition. We can win the battle.
, what about today? We have more than 3,500 people, well-equipped weapons, and sufficient ammunition. What else do we have to fear? Aren’t we just surrounded by tens of thousands of people? Aren’t we all left on the east bank of the Xiangjiang River? What’s so great about it?
, at worst, we will fight back to the base area."
Looking at the silent warrior below, Liu Hua shouted loudly.
"Comrades, are you willing to sit here and wait for the enemy to catch you?"
"I don't want to." Looking at the soldiers who had different answers, Liu Hua shouted again, "Answer me loudly, are you willing or not."
"unwilling"
"Okay, I don't want to, comrades, do you have the confidence to fight back to the base with me and rebuild your homeland?"
"have"
…
Seeing that the morale of the soldiers was immediately mobilized by Liu Hua's few words, Li Qing was completely convinced. His partner was not only open-minded, but also knew how to fight, and was so good at thinking and work. It seemed that he would have to study more in the future.
